University Of Montana Officials Review Proposed Cuts, Restructuring - EDWARD O'BRIEN, MTPR

The University of Montana is taking a hard look at its priorities. University of Montana officials met Friday to take a hard look at the recommendations from a task force reviewing those budgeting and enrollment priorities. The University of Montana’s funding is tied to enrollment, and declining enrollment has proven to be a significant financial challenge over the last several years. The school is now reevaluating its academic and administrative priorities. Interim Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Beverly Edmond says it’s been a difficult, but long overdue process. http://mtpr.org/post/university-montana-officials-review-proposed-cuts-restructuring
